All those winter coats coats coats in black black black. Bla bla bla. Helloooooooooooooo. The reason why coats are traditionally black is because nobody ever wanted to have them cleaned. We don't know what year you're living in but in our modern world, there's a cleaner on every corner next to the Starbuck's (that's certainly on every corner) and it'll cost you less than a double shot and an almond croissant. The trend for wearing white winter coats started with Andre and Coqueline Courreges who were disgusted over the fact that women would literally never have their coats cleaned so they took the option of black coats away for a long time. Does any of that make you feel better about wearing a white coat on the M2 to 86th Street? Probably not which is why a colored coat is such a crucial compromise. We know you have a black coat already. Expand your horizons! Pierre Cardin's not quite blue, not quite purple wool coat is the warm coat to wear all season. Heavy wool melton which is so heavily woven that it will keep out Arctic wind, you may find yourself unbuttoning the coat to aerate when the thermometer climbs above 40. The color is really like a navy indigo, with big black domed buttons and a wide, exaggerated pointed collar. Decorative seaming along the high waistline, collar and pockets, the skirt is slightly flared to expose the great inverted seam in back. Lined in blue purple silk satin, the bust measures 36", shoulder to shoulder 15.5", outer sleeve 23" and length 47". Excellent condition. $1045.00 |
